Thank You

I look at myself
I say man you getting big
Weight gain after depression
Is always something big
I look to my family
All they can say is
That I need to hit the gym
But nobody wants to help
Because they scared to hit the gym
Worried about judgmental eyes
Are ya'll embarrassed about what i've become?
I'm always under the scope
But I know I got to get things done
So here i am world
Take me as I am
If you can't respect that
Then leave me as I am
Thank You
